I Felt Like Putting Some Clothes On The Buggy Dude! ^-^

I felt like putting some clothes on the buggy dude! ^-^

I included a close-up of the second version, since tumblr loves to just *eat up* all the details TTvTT

It's heavily inspired by my own wardrobe/general sense of fashion lmao, I basically have those jeans, as well as that belt and that orange sweater, and I love to mix my metals :]

And he may not have any nails, but who says you can't wear nail polish just because of that? Bahahaha

Heyo, friends!!

Here is yet another awesome character I've made art of for ArtFight: Sol, owned by @citrispace here on tumblr ^-^

They were depicted both as a child and a young adult, so I decided to lean more towards the latter for the actual appearance, while I took inspiration from both of them for the expression and over-all vibe of the character :]

The hair was so incredibly fun to draw! I just love this lava-lamp vibe so much, and the floaty bits were a blast to add in the end!

I'm really happy with how they came out looking almost like a paper doll in some of the detailing, I shade my line-art *as well as* the actual flat colours, which might be why that happens from time to time bahahahaha

I'm also extremely satisfied with how their expression turned out! They seemed like a really fun-loving character, so I wanted to draw them laughing at a good joke ^-^

Awesome character #4 aside, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day! 🧡

Long time no see, friends!

Recently I've had an all-you-can-eat buffet worth of responsibilities and struggles on my plate, so I haven't been able to (or had the energy to) post or talk to anyone, let alone make art TTvTT

But with ArtFight came excitement, and with excitement came motivation! So I'll be posting everything I make for other participants on here, with their permission and credits of course ^-^

Starting right now!!

This, my friends, is my take on a human version of Grief (owned by 8atwix on ArtFight), who can be found through this ToyHouse link! :]

I had so much fun experimenting with the unusual skintone, and figuring out how I should render it! In the end, I think it turned out really good ^-^

Grief seemed like a really playful, miscievous character, so I hope I was able to portray that in my art as well!

I'm still not entirely sure of what I'm doing when I'm rendering people, but I definetly feel like I've made really good progress so far!

Awesome character #1 and art progress aside, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day ^-^ 🧡

Bro I am still so fucking proud of how my bug boy turned out, that pose was 100% just my brain working overtime, underpaid, with not nearly enough resources lmfao

I looked at a picture of a stick insect to figure out the buggy ends of his limbs, but that's literally it

Sorry I just had to get that out of my system bahahaha, it was eating me alive TTvTT

Stickbug out ✌🪲

Hello, friends!

Here is another awesome character I've made art of for ArtFight, owned and designed by @leilanising (and with the same name as she is a sona) here on tumblr ^-^

I actually struggled a bit with this one!! I couldn't use my usual approach to the line-art in terms of colour since I like to make it slightly darker than what it's surrounding, so it was challenging to let go of that familiarity and use lighter colours this time!

Nonetheless, it was a very fun challenge, and I'm glad I was able to push through with the rendering rather than just leaving it as flat colours ^-^

I'm happy with the result! And I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of drawing noses, which I've struggled with a lot in the past :D

Awesome character #3 aside, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day ^-^🧡

Yours truly, Stickbug 🪲
